Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

281: Transplanting and engraving sword stones (two-in-one, please vote for me)Inside the Grotto-heaven World, Lin Shiming awoke from his comprehension of the Jade Slip, a smile gracing his face.

Xiao Chen’s insights were incredibly useful to him, detailing the methods for transplanting precious Spirit Plants like the taiqing purple jade fruit, which were equally applicable to the Fu Ling Fire Mulberry Tree.

Especially the four-tier spirit soil left by the latter, it also played a huge role.

Coupled with his spirit body characteristics, he was confident that both Spirit Trees would not suffer significant damage.

Lin Shiming stood up; Lin Xianzhi beside him was still in seclusion, Cultivating. After consuming the fire mulberry fruit, his vitality recovered, his blood Qi was abundant, and with High-Grade Spirit Stones, his Cultivation progressed at an astonishing speed.

He was also beginning to push towards Peak Foundation Establishment, preparing to Breakthrough to the Purple Mansion.

Lin Shiming watched Lin Xianzhi’s Cultivation, but did not disturb him.

He then looked at the Spirit Plants in the Grotto-heaven World. Since entering the Small World, he hadn’t had a chance to come to the Grotto-heaven to care for the Spirit Plants inside.

Now looking at them again, he was filled with emotion.

And this Grotto-heaven almost carried the hope of the Lin family’s rise, and even more, the hope of his own Dao achievement.

The Little Divine Tree still resembled a sapling, and the lightning on the two Golden Thunder Bamboos was becoming more and more abundant. Besides these, there was also the Tian Ling Fruit Tree, which was the only Spirit Tree close to bearing fruit.

Further away was the Tea Tree, and to this day, the Wood Demon within it had not awakened.

The consumption of its Natal spirit leaf seemed to have truly exhausted much of its Origin.

However, the clusters of tea leaves were growing better and better, and even the Golden Winged Mantis lying beneath the Tea Tree, its four pairs of Jin Chi (Golden Wings), were becoming increasingly extraordinary with Spirit Light.

Seeing Lin Shiming look over, it lazily chirped, then continued to lie on the Tea Tree.

In the distance, the Red-haired Demon Monkey was pressing on the Magic Treasure furnace, occasionally releasing a wisp of spirit fox flame, then swallowing it into its belly.

Each time it opened the two-eared, three-legged Pill Furnace, the temperature within the Grotto-heaven World would suddenly soar.

Lin Shiming also walked up to the Red-haired Demon Monkey. At this moment, the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s entire body was covered in red spirit patterns, which were becoming increasingly distinct. Even though it was now the size of a young monkey, the terrifying spirit patterns across its body were more conspicuous and intense than when it was a three-zhang red ape.

Especially its tail, which was much longer than before.

And the spirit patterns on its tail were like dynamic flames, constantly burning.

Even its aura had improved significantly, showing a tendency to catch up with the Golden Winged Mantis and reach the Peak of the third-tier Middle Stage.

”Awoo!” The Red-haired Demon Monkey glanced at Lin Shiming, habitually pressing one hand on the furnace and extending the other to beg for Beast Nurturing Pills and spirit water.

Lin Shiming was somewhat exasperated; this red-haired one’s personality truly wanted everything.

He smiled and stroked the red-haired one’s head, finding that its head was now incredibly hot.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the fire spiritual power within the red-haired one’s body had surged by an unknown number of times.

His heart instantly tensed.

For Cultivators and Spirit Beasts, such a situation was not a good sign.

It meant losing control of the spiritual power throughout the body.

In minor cases, Meridians would rupture; in severe cases, the body would explode and die.

”You can’t swallow any more spirit fire!!” Lin Shiming decisively put away the Magic Treasure furnace along with the spirit fire inside.

”Awoo awoo awoo!” The red-haired one immediately became anxious, scratching and grabbing all over its body, leaping left and right, and crying out to Lin Shiming with eyes full of longing.

The intense craving in its eyes startled Lin Shiming.

He understood that among the three Spirit Beasts he raised, the Golden Winged Mantis was the laziest but undeniably powerful, while the Red-haired Demon Monkey was the most combative and eager to win, but also the weakest in terms of strength, especially after the hatching of Wang Jiao. This became even more apparent.

Now with the Magic Treasure spirit furnace and the Heaven and Earth spirit fire within it, the red-haired one was clearly too eager for quick success!

Lin Shiming ignored the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s pleading and instead took out a large amount of Beast Nurturing Pills, spirit beast meat, and some third-tier spirit fruits rich in spiritual power from his spoils.

The Red-haired Demon Monkey continued to howl.

However, after Lin Shiming glared at it, it only howled twice before giving up, then, hugging the Beast Nurturing Pills, spirit fruits, and spirit meat, it walked towards the Tian Ling Fruit Tree.

As the Red-haired Demon Monkey walked away, a Divine Sense fluctuation came from Wang Jiao in the swamp.

Because the Soul Restraining Seal was signed, Wang Jiao even transmitted simple syllables in his mind.

”Stone, stone!”

Lin Shiming looked over, only to see Wang Jiao still wrapped around the huge mysterious shell, opening its mouth towards him.

And in the swamp beside it, the Spirit Light of the High-Grade Spirit Stones had already been absorbed.

Lin Shiming placed two High-Grade Spirit Stones, and the latter immediately quieted down, continuing to fiddle with the mysterious spirit shell.

Everything within the Grotto-heaven World was extremely orderly, which put his mind at ease.

Seeing that everything was in order, Lin Shiming began to transplant the taiqing purple jade fruit Tree.

He had seen Xiao Chen transplant this ziyu fruit tree, and more details were recorded in the Jade Slip, so he was more confident.

He took out a fourth-tier spirit box, and a rich purple light shone forth. He tore off the spirit talisman attached to the jade box, and an astonishing Spiritual Qi overflowed.

And it even formed a rich purple light phenomenon, like a purple jade python.

Lin Shiming’s heart couldn’t help but be startled, thinking that the purple jade python had some hidden move, but when his Divine Sense probed, he discovered that it was because the taiqing purple jade fruit had been guarded by the purple jade python for a long time, and the Spiritual Qi it emitted had somewhat absorbed the purple jade python’s aura.

Lin Shiming breathed a sigh of relief. In the Grotto-heaven World, he found a fertile patch of spirit soil, planted a large amount of third-tier spirit soil, and finally covered it with a layer of precious fourth-tier spirit soil.

These spirit soils, like a starry sky, glowed with Spirit Light, sparkling and crystalline.

Once the spirit soil was arranged, the most important step was to add the fourth-tier spirit-nourishing liquid. This fourth-tier spirit-nourishing liquid was also obtained from Xiao Chen’s Jade Slip, which was why it took so long to digest.

Most of the Spirit Medicine needed for it was found in Xiao Chen’s Storage Pouch, and the remaining small portion they had found in the Small World and Secret Realm.

Lin Shiming did not hesitate and immediately began to refine the spirit-nourishing liquid on the spot.

He took out a Pill Furnace from his Storage Pouch. This Pill Furnace was a third-tier High Grade Pill Furnace taken from the Purple Mansion Cave.

Even after being dormant for so long, the spirit patterns on the furnace were flawless. As soon as he input true essence, a fiery red Spirit Light emanated, and with his will, the heat contracted and expanded freely.

He took out some ordinary second-tier Spirit Medicine and tested the Pill Furnace. After confirming everything was correct, he took out various Spirit Medicine and began to concoct them one by one.

Refining spirit-nourishing liquid is not like Alchemy; it only requires mastering the proportion of ingredients, and the requirement for heat is not high.

However, even so, he still failed twice, succeeding only on the third attempt.

As the spirit-nourishing liquid was prepared, the entire Grotto-heaven World was filled with a rich fragrance.

The spirit-nourishing liquid was poured into the fourth-tier spirit soil.

The spirit liquid and spirit soil mixed together, and the Spirit Light became increasingly intense, like a galaxy sprinkled from the heavens.

Seeing no other abnormalities, Lin Shiming poured the remaining spirit-nourishing liquid into the jade box.

Allowing the taiqing purple jade fruit Tree to fully absorb it, he then transplanted the ziyu fruit tree into the spirit soil.

Lin Shiming then tirelessly poured his true essence into it, and as the true essence was infused, the entire taiqing purple jade fruit Tree emitted a brilliant purple glow, instantly restoring its original appearance.

Like a purple crystal tree, noble and magnificent.

Lin Shiming did not stop, continuously pouring in true essence.

This Spirit Plant before him represented whether the Lin family could continue to produce Purple Mansion Cultivators in the future.

He dared not be negligent in the slightest.

He continued until the true essence of all three spirit platforms was exhausted before stopping.

His Divine Sense looked towards the jade tree, only to see faint purple spirit dots appearing on the branches of the jade tree.

Within the spirit dots, infinite vitality was brewing.

Lin Shiming finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The taiqing purple jade fruit Tree was truly transplanted. These purple spirit dots would sprout in the future, then grow lush branches and leaves, reaching the Peak of the ziyu tree.

Finally, it would blossom, shed leaves, and bear fruit. When the jade leaves of the ziyu fruit tree fell completely, it would be the time for new ziyu fruit to ripen, and so on!

After transplanting the ziyu fruit tree, Lin Shiming immediately sat down to recover his true essence.

To speed things up, he even took out a High-Grade Spirit Stone to recover his true essence.

After more than half a day, as the cycle of the Purple Wood Heart Sutra concluded, Lin Shiming once again began to transplant the Fu Ling Fire Mulberry Tree.

Similarly, he used spirit soil, spirit-nourishing liquid, and after transplanting, he once again infused true essence.

However, what made him somewhat uncomfortable was that as soon as the Fu Ling Fire Mulberry Tree was transplanted, it emitted immense heat, causing him great trouble in infusing true essence.

But when he saw a fiery red fire mulberry fruit tree close at hand, he felt that everything was worth it.

Even the Red-haired Demon Monkey in the distance, sensing the fiery red aura, leaped over and claimed the fire mulberry fruit tree as its new home.

Lin Shiming, as usual, warned and reminded the Red-haired Demon Monkey, then allowed the latter to occupy the tree as its nest!

After planting the two Spirit Plants, four or five days had passed since the six-tier Formation incident.

Lin Shiming then began to plan his departure from the Tai Bai Sword Palace.

And he also needed to prepare to return from the World Tower to the Secret Realm.

For the remaining time, he did not plan to lie low in the Small World, as that made him feel too insecure.

In this Small World, there were many Immortal Master Clones, and these Clones could exert Purple Mansion strength for a short period.

However, in the Mysterious Grade Secret Realm, Purple Mansion Cultivators and Purple Mansion aura would not appear for even a moment.

Lin Shiming silently wished to exit the Grotto-heaven World, but did not act immediately.

He was testing the System prompt.

As the System prompts became more frequent, he gradually understood that they were directed at his thoughts, as if a subtle sense in the unseen.

However, his senses would appear as System prompts, and they had never been wrong.

After a false sense, no System prompt was triggered, and Lin Shiming felt relieved.

After restoring his true essence to its Peak state, he directly steered the war treasure ship and appeared in the Alchemy Pavilion.

Although the System prompt would most likely warn him, his heart was still in his throat.

He was ready to retreat into the Grotto-heaven World at any moment.

Even a fifth-tier Formation was something he couldn’t resist. If the sixth-tier Formation was still active, he would definitely return to the Grotto-heaven World immediately.

But upon appearing in the ruins of the Alchemy Pavilion, he discovered that the six-tier killing Formation had disappeared, clearly retreating to the Scripture Pavilion.

His Divine Sense spread out, and he found that the passage where the Scripture Pavilion was located had vanished, along with four other passages: the main hall and the Hall of Teachings, which were hidden by the Formation, and the Sect’s living quarters and Artifact Refining Hall.

And if he wasn’t mistaken, if he hadn’t already been in the Alchemy Pavilion, it too would probably have been hidden.

Lin Shiming finally breathed a sigh of relief. All passages being hidden meant he no longer needed to worry about the Cultivators of the Qingxuan Sect.

And getting out was even simpler: holding the sword token, exiting the mountain gate, and descending the welcoming ladder would suffice. Furthermore, it would randomly teleport him to a location, which was another reason Lin Shiming wasn’t too worried.

With no danger, he only needed to be careful of the Formation on the outskirts of the Alchemy Pavilion, so he simply wandered around the Alchemy Pavilion.

Speaking of which, he was the first to enter the Tai Bai Sword Palace, but he never had a chance to search it.

He searched the Alchemy Pavilion thoroughly again, looking for any overlooked treasures. As a powerful Sect like the Tai Bai Sword Palace, there must be many treasures, and it was extremely normal for some to be missed.

However, after searching around, he remembered the Corpse Refinement Sect Cultivator he had slain, a ruthless Cultivator who had even collected every brick and tile, leaving nothing behind except for the areas covered by Formations.

And Lin Shiming naturally dared not touch the areas covered by Formations, as they were not lacking in fifth- and sixth-tier Formations.

Lin Shiming walked down towards the mountain gate. At this time, the sword plaque engraved with the words ”Tai Bai Sword Palace” on the mountain gate had been removed, leaving only the hollow stone pillar mountain gate.

Proving that this place was once a revered mountain gate.

Lin Shiming did not continue to move these stone pillar mountain gates, but instead walked onto the guiding sword ladder.

However, just then, a System prompt suddenly appeared.

Lin Shiming was also surprised; he thought there was an ambush outside, but he only saw the System prompt pointing to the welcoming ladder beneath his feet.

”Please use Spirit Devouring Ants to bite off the welcoming ladder; you will obtain a large amount of sword carving stones!”

Lin Shiming was somewhat shocked, then overjoyed. These sword carving stones were clearly the welcoming ladder beneath his feet, which could release Sword Intent and help Sword Cultivators grow.

Even if his Sword Intent was profound, Cultivating daily on the sword ladder made of sword carving stones would greatly increase his Sword Intent.

Furthermore, these sword carving stones had long been engraved with Sword Intent by the Cultivators of the Tai Bai Sword Palace. Perhaps the Cultivators of the Lin family could even comprehend new Sword Intent on the sword ladder.

Overjoyed, he wasted no time and released eighty-one Spirit Devouring Ants, which began to dig out the welcoming sword ladder one by one.

At this moment, the Spirit Devouring Ants that had consumed stalactites were extremely ferocious, each on the verge of reaching the third tier, potentially becoming third-tier Spirit Devouring Ants at any moment.

Lin Shiming repeatedly warned these Spirit Devouring Ants not to devour the sword carving stones, as he feared they would indiscriminately devour and consume all the sword carving stones.

Lin Shiming, meanwhile, supported them with his Sword Intent, enduring the pressure of the sword ladder for these Spirit Devouring Ants.

Soon, the first piece of the welcoming ladder appeared.

Lin Shiming instantly waved his hand, collecting the sword carving stone welcoming ladder, and then continued with the second piece.

Each time he removed a piece, he took a step forward.

This continued until the eighteenth piece, when a brilliant Spirit Light appeared, enveloping him.

The Spirit Light shifted, and the next moment, he appeared on a small hill.

Lin Shiming was clearly somewhat taken aback; he hadn’t expected the Tai Bai Sword Palace to send him out early.

It was as if some forbidden Formation had been triggered.

Lin Shiming immediately felt a great pity; there were eighty-one pieces of the welcoming ladder’s sword carving stones.

Of course, as soon as he appeared outside, he instantly took out the five-colored silkworm coffin and fled into the distance.

And within the Storage Pouch in his body, one piece of information after another began to appear.

It was the Qingxuan Token discovered by Zi Xuan Sanren.

And the message on the token greatly startled him.

Real Person Huanmo’s Clone stole a treasure from the Qingxuan Sect, and the entire Sect was searching for him. Whoever found Real Person Huanmo’s Clone would be rewarded with a purple profound treasure jade!

That was a purple profound treasure jade for Breakthrough to the Purple Mansion. Lin Shiming’s mind had only one thought: the Blood Nether Lotus had been stolen.

He was only hesitant about how the Qingxuan Sect could make such a big mistake, and he knew that the Xuanjian Immortal Master Clone and the Qinglin Immortal Master Clone should both be in the Spirit Plant Garden!

Of course, besides the Qingxuan Token, there was also Xie An’s sound transmission talisman; he was actually looking for him!
